    i see from the pictures of the '34 for sale on ebay that there is a "door closer" handle on each door. my sedan deluxe only has one on the pax door. should there be one on the driver door as well. i am talking about the "D" ring handle fitted under the edge of the window garnish, not the door operating handle. regards, tom

    I believe ther is only supposed to be on on the right side. My father has an original 34 sedan and it only has the one on the right. I have never seen one on the left. Someone probably added the left side to make them match.

    paul, not the locking handle, but the "D" ring handle you pull on to close the door. regards, tom

    Tom, according to the '36 literature these handles were accessory items, not standard on any model. Probably the same in '34-35.

    Tom, I don't know for sure, but see no reason why they wouldn't have been offered individually vs. having to buy a pair.
